Bermuda once again took home the award for “Best Island in the Caribbean/Atlantic Region" for the 15th time at the Condé Nast Traveler's 2009 Readers' Choice Awards, held on Thursday, October 15th in New York City.
Accepting the award on behalf of Bermuda was Dr. the Hon. Ewart F. Brown, Bermuda's Premier and Minister of Tourism and Transport.
"This distinction is especially meaningful in that these awards are voted on by the public," said Premier Brown. "Condé Nast Traveler readers are known to be extremely discerning, and for Bermuda to consistently be honored reinforces the message to travelers that Bermuda is one of the world's top destinations."
Also taking home an award this year was the Bermuda resort The Reefs. The newly-refurbished resort was voted "Top Resort - Atlantic Ocean."
About the Awards: The Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards are derived from the oldest and largest independent poll of travel consumers ever conducted. To attain results this year, organizers compiled 25,008 responses to questionnaires available to all readers through a secure Web site. The number and depth of the responses makes the Readers' Choice results the most reliable measurement of the consumer preferences in the world of travel. The awards appear in the November 2009 issue.
